With an incandescent passion matched only by her abundant ambition and prodigious talent, Ms. Appiah has been at the forefront of the mission for this generation of Africans to seize control of tools by which Africa's narrative is curated, crafted, and presented to the wider world.
That’s why they fought for the United Africa, for the return of blacks to the African continent, because they knew that for as long as we are divided, we can never be powerful enough to fight the system and rewrite history.
Ghana’s first president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, after leading Ghana to independence said: “Our independence is meaningless unless it is linked up with the total liberation of the African continent,” and I would add the black diaspora.
Nkrumah further stated: “All people of African descent, whether they live in North or South America, the Caribbean, or in any part of the world are Africans and belong to the African nation.”
I would love to see African leaders and other black leaders around the world coming to the table with some concrete plans and actions that will shake the world.
